Alex Rodriguez is not pleased that Madonna is parading her new man around New York.

As Gatecrasher reported Tuesday, Her Madgesty stepped out with 22-year-old Brazilian boy toy Jesus Luz - and two of her children - last weekend in the Meatpacking District. Now sources tell us her recent flame A-Rod is mortified. "Alex is well aware that Madonna is out and about with Jesus, and he isn't happy about it," an insider tells us. "It's embarrassing for him because he and Madonna have been so publicly linked, and now it looks like he's been dumped for a younger stud."

Madonna has been trying to soothe the Yankee slugger by telling him Luz is just a decoy to take the heat off of their own romance. "Madonna pooh-pooed her relationship with Jesus and called it a publicity trick," the insider confides. "But now that Jesus was spotted out with her kids, she can't hide her subterfuge any longer."

So far, the Material Mom's (r.) relationship with Luz has been uncomplicated. "Jesus comes and goes, but he never stays at her house. He's certainly not moving in," says the source. "It's not like Madge is going to marry Jesus. He's keeping her warm at night."

Despite Madge's burgeoning relationship with Luz, she still isn't ready to let A-Rod out of her grip. "Madonna likes to be in control, and she hasn't been able to completely control Alex yet," says our source. "Jesus has been much more attentive than Alex recently. If A-Rod will commit to Madonna, then he'll win her affections. But it's not like he's giving her a diamond ring. Neither he nor Madonna is 100% committed to each other yet."

Regardless of who is last man standing, one fact remains. Being linked to a 22-year-old model and a 33-year-old sports star makes Madonna, 50, "one of the greatest spider traps of all time," our insider laughs. "She's the ultimate cougar!"

After the duo was caught bare-cheeked and red-faced, "The girl was asked to sign a contract stating the sex was consensual, for fear of a lawsuit, and the engineer was fired," says our insider. A rep for Trump called the claims "ridiculous."
